General Rains az California.

During the past week rain has been
falling atintervals over the entire State,
amounting to from one to two inches
along the Immediate southern coast, to
from three to five inches in the interior
and the middle and northern part Of the
state, where the rainfall is always
greater. As the rainy season usually
sets in about the holidays, considerable
uneasiness has been felt. since the effects
of a dry season are about as seriously
felt in California, as in any Of the east
ern states and perhaps more so, as the
want of sufficient rain during winter is
about the only danger with which crops
Of all kinds in California are threatened.
The danger is now past for this season,
the rainfall has been sufficient to give
grass and other vegetation good start
and as there are yet two months of the
rainy season left and the weather at the
present still cloudy, with wind from the
south, the prospects of more and SUI
fcient rain are good. Before next vim
ter southern California will have a LARGE
portion Of her irrigating system com.
pleted, and through it will be enabled
to pass through the occasional dry sea-

rather an expensive luxury for a poor
man at present. The cost of the new
hume is estimated at about million
dollars; it will require about ten million
feet of the best redwood lumber in it's
construction. Several other fumes are
being built in the southern part of the
state. With the knowledge of what ir-
rigation has done for Riverside and An
naheim, it is not difficult to comprehend
what an immense effect these new water
supplies will have toward the develope-
ment of Southern California in the i'm
mediate future.
The report that the Atchison, Topeka
& Santa Fee road and the Southern Ca
lifornia would both commence building
their lines into San Diego by way Of
Los Angeles, has now become fact,
both roads are at work with might and
main on their lines, each trying to reach
the harber of San Diego first. The COM
petition Of these roads will also be of
no small advantage to Los Angeles, for
it's merchants and importers can Law
down goods in that city cheaper and
quicker when unloaded in the grand
harbor Of San Diego and thence for
warded by rail on two competing pow
erfull railroads. than when they have to
be unloaded in the open roadstead by
the aid of transports, or in the very in
adequate little harbor at San Pedro, or
the new projected little bologna slough,
and than carried by rail into Los Ange-
les distance of eighteen miles.
/ With these two additional roads and
a number Of interior feeders, all having
their termini at San Diego harbor, it is
not difficult to see that San Diego and
Los Angeles will in a very short time
become powerful rivals to San Francisco
and Portland in the trade with Austria
liza, China, and all the South American
States, nor is it very difficult to see that
San Diego, through its natural advant-
ages over Los Angeles, will soon, not
only come up to, but get ahead of that
live and growing city; both are, except
ing the greater distance apart, running
a similar race to St. Paul and Minnea-
polls. A good many eastern tourists
are passing through and stopping at
San Diego. St. Paul, Minneapolis and
other Minnesota places furnish fair
contingent Among those from Man

A Strange Fish.

In the warm waters of the Indian Ocean.
sailors say, strange fish is found that has
given rise TO many curious tales among the
natives of the coast. They tell of a great
sail often see., In the calm season preceding
the hurricanes that race over those waters.
Not breath disturbs the water, the sea
rises and falls like a sheet of glass; sud
denly the sail appears glistening with rich
purple and golden hpes, and seemingly
driven along by the wind. On it comes,
quivering and sparkling, as if bedecked
with gems, but only to disappear as il by
magic. Many travellers had heard with
unbelief this strange tale; but one day
toward evening the phantom craft actually
appeared to the crew of an Indian steamer,
and as it passed by under the stern of the
vessel the queer 'sail" was seen TO belong
TO gigantic sword-fislr, now known as the
sailor-ish The sail was an enormously
developed dorsal fin that was over ten feet
high, and was richly colored with blue aud
and irridescent tints; and as the fish swan
along near the surface of the water this
TN waved to and fro so that it could easily
be mistaken for a curious sail. As il ap-
preached the steamer light feathery spray
was emitted at regular intervals from the
head, and as no two could agree upon the
cause OF this phenomena, the captain lev
eled his unfailing telescope upon it and
discovered TO the amaZement of every one
that the fish was actually advertising for
the Campbell Mercantile Co., Sedalia, Mo-,
who carry the largest and most complete
stock OF Dry Goods In Central Missouri

4 Baby'S Travels.

and a sister coming to the door was
rendered little boy baby. The sis
ter would not take it, as the colOred
woman was not accompanied by an
officer, and an officer was called and
he arreset her. She gave her name
as Ollie Brown. and said that a wom-
an handed her the baby at the Union
depot, and again that, 81 was given
him by a woman on the train

woman had a basket with her con-

signed "Mother." When the cOlOred
woman was arrested white

SEDALIA FOR CHRIST.
The Greatest Revival ever Known
i'm Sedalia at the Cumberland
Presbyterian Church.

The meetings of the three Presbyte-
rian churches with the COngrega-
tional church of this city, has created
the most deep and abiding interest to
almost every one fortunate enough to
attend, and many, indeed, have taken
advantage of the unusually sparkling
and business like talks of the leader
of these meetings, Major j. III. Cole.
1t seems that God has endowed this
plain spoken layman and Paulite with
the blessed influence to bring souls to
a distinct knowledge as to how they
stand with God.
The most ignorant as we'll as the
most intellectual see with the same
eyes under the almost divine work for
our Savior's cause that this series of
meetings has been remarkable for.
Jesus Christ and His meek and
lowly example, His love and His
mercy are the keynotes to the blessed
results of the whole revival thus
far.
The unity of the pastors and the
motto of the revival "Sedalia for
Christ, ".has been the means of awak-
ening the good christians and those
who had, owing to worldly influences
felt their weakness and inability for
this work, to the absolute importance
of personal work required for the con-
version of this dear one, and that
friend, and the carrying out of their
motto.
A man nearly four score years old
was heard to say he had never in his
life seen such correct and efficient
work, nor such general interest as has
been evinced by the young people,
and to this and to the prayerful spirit
manifested by all AID the fact that
our friends and brothers in many
cities are also praying for the sue
cess of the work, we attribute
the blessed results already &C
complished and We are more and
more convinced that God is with
us and is pouring out his richest bles-
sings on our beloved city.
Business men and men who have
never, perhaps, for years let their
minds dwell for a moment on the eter-
nifty of their souls, have listened to
Major Cole and recognized the
strength of his plain but forcible
words. 81 thought" meaning that
men worry needlessly over many
things when doubt would end imme-
diately if they would consult what
"God said" and act upon what His
word directed.
There could be nothing more unique
nor hardly so applicable of his text
"Get right with God" and his inter.
esting but illustrative anecdotes that
are so convincing in their application
to those engagedin business.
People are stirred to the deepest and
of so much interest are these meetings
that many have partially neglected
their business to enjoy a brief season |
of the almost penticostal gatherings
that have continued all the past week |
with ever increasing numbers and
spiritual benefits. Three hundred |
and twenty-eight have confessed
Christ as their personal savior.
There will be a mass meeting for |
all at Woods Opera house at 3 o'clock |
to-day.
The various pulpits will be occupied
by their respective ministers this
morning and union meeting of the |
Presbyterian and Congregational
churches will be held at the Cumber- |
and Presbyterian church commenc-
ing at 7:30 p. m.
